Building A Pad For TRASH CANS | DIY Yard Projects | Trash Can Pad DIY | Life With Liz
Welcome back to Life with Liz! Today I will be taking you with me as I am building a pad for trash cans. We have both a trash can and recycling bin that our city picks up from so we need to build a pad large enough for both. This is the first of many DIY yard projects you will be seeing this spring so make sure you are subscribed with your bell notifications on so you know when my other videos are out to motivate you. Where are your trash cans stored?
In the future I would like to add a little fence coming out from the house to help hide the trash cans from when you pull up to it. Do you guys have any diy yard projects you are planning on doing this spring or summer? We have a few coming up I am excited for.
I am so happy with how this trash can pad turned out. It looks so much better! I cant wait to get that fence up in the future too.

@Hank Hill it was just sand. That's the only 2 products I used. I just put sand over the top and in the cracks to prevent grass from growing through. We have had no issues so far and it's been 8ish months.

@catherinebarry5256 2 года назад

Very helpful video. Now that it is a year later - how is the concrete holding up? I am interested in doing something similar, but the trash cans be sometimes heavy and I'm worried that as I push and pull them over the concrete they would break over time.

I plan to do this for my trash. I used to keep them in the front in front of the garage but earlier this year moved them to the side of the house (hated them being at the front). Also, planning to make pads where I have two large flower pots. Glad that I came across this video, Will be my guide.

@LifewithLiz 2 года назад

Amazing! Yes basically the same for us. Ours would fall over during storms too and now they don't. This has held up so well for us! I would love for you to share your finished product with me on IG! It's so fun to see! Thank you so much for watching Mavis!

Curious, have you had any "large critters" try to get into the bins? If so how do you keep the lids shut from letting them get in? Other than that, great video but I'm gunna use my temper and level to level it all out.

@03cobra4 Год назад

Thanks for the video. Glad to see in comments that it has held up well. I was thinking you might get some erosion around the edge. I plan on doing this over the upcoming weekend. My thought though was to try and get them flush with the surrounding grass to allow for a smooth roll onto the pad. I will see how that goes. Take care.

@kj475 Год назад

@@LifewithLiz I know what he's talking about. I did mine exactly like yours 6 years ago and the pavers shifted and became slightly unlevel over time. I redid it 2 years ago with a coarse paver base under the sand and also used the plastic form pieces around the outer edges. There is no chance for the pavers to shift now. I guess it all depends on how much you care about how finished it looks. It still served it's purpose with the uneven pavers, I just didn't like the way it looked. Thanks for posting up your video!!

@Boomers4Zoomers 16 дней назад

Dimensions?

@daver2964 5 месяцев назад

Good job! A simple "screed" would help in levelling. A) Weed blocker B)a "paver base" to eliminate using and carrying so much sand C) paver edge restrain D) slope slightly away from home E) play sand for filljng cracks F) finish off with sealer to minimize stains, mold from moisture. Side note.....i dont like the cheap soil sold in bags...."u never know what u gonna get" its like a box of chocolates. I would mixed in an organic soil topper like "kelloggs" from HD. 1 to 3 ratio (for seeds)
